Considering the challenges teachers face in their classrooms, it is necessary to develop strategies that promote greater student motivation and contribute more effectively to science education. In this context, the present study provides an investigative didactic sequence (IDS) along with guidelines, for teachers to work on biological contents in High School by using insects in field activities developed collaboratively. The IDS consists in five steps, which culminate in an exhibition of the work students developed for the whole school community. The IDS’s results when applied to two third year high school classes were students’ higher interest and motivation during the activities, and consequently a higher performance.
